Net::Telnet won't negotiatiate terminal types, which
is perhaps the problem. I suspect that VMS has mapped
your terminal type to "dumb", which has no
function key mappings.
Try sending the VMS incantation
"SET TERMINAL /DEVICE=VT200" right after you login, then the escape sequences should work. (From what I remember, the vt100 doesn't have F10..F12)
The Net::Telnet docs mention an option_set method which
isn't supported yet. Perhaps in a later rev, you can
just let Net::Telnet send the terminal type.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
